Live Edge Hardwood Slabs

The Beauty of Natural

A tree absorbs the best and worst that nature hurls at it. Heat and drought. Rain and battering wind. As a tree grows, these experiences shape its internal wood structure. Grain and knots, burls and scars tell the history of a tree.

Live edge slabs display the natural beauty of a tree. They preserve the unique history and experience of trees. As countertops, mantles, shelves, or tabletops, live edge wood brings the beauty of nature into your home.
